Locating Directory Number Of Your Intercom Station In AlphaPro Database
To locate the directory number of your intercom station you will need to select the User/Station Icon in AlphaPro. Once you enter this section of AlphaPro you will have to locate your intercom stations current directory number and select it by browsing the left hand pane of the programming screen until you find it. Once you locate it you will select it with your mouse by clicking on it. When you select it the details related to this directory number will be shown on the right hand side of the programming screen. You will now see the directory number of the station you have selected and directly below it the display text related to it.
Note: You must use the hardware programming key/dongle (USB or Parallel) to see the directory numbers above physical port 36 in the left hand pane. If you don't have the programming key you will only be able to program and change the directory numbers and features related to the first 36 directory numbers/physical ports of AlphaCom system.
Stub
The "stub" at the top of the article can be used while working with the article. Remove it when finnished.
Changing Current Directory Number
Now that you have selected the directory number you wish to change you are now ready to change the current directory number to the directory number you desire for this intercom station. Using your mouse click and highlight the complete directory number in the diretory number box, now you can enter the directory number you wish to program. Once you have entered the directory number AlphaPro will check if the database has any issues with the new directory number you have chosen. To check to see if the database has any issues you simply select another field, i.e. such as display text, station type, etc. If you get no warning messages then you may use the new directory number you have chosen, but if you get a warning messages you must decide what you want to do.
Warning messages can be:
Warning, Directory Number Masking--If you get this message then the new directory number you are attempting to use is masking another intercom station number and it will provide you with the first stations directory number you are masking. You can chose to ignore this message, however if you do you may not be able to place a call to the station you are programming or the other intercom station(s) in the system.
Duplicate Directory Number--If you get this message then the new directory number you are attempting to use is masking a feature number in the database, feature numbers like all call/group call numbers, program channel numbers, conference numbers, etc. You must chose yes or no when you get this message, if you chose yes it will program your station directory number as you wish and delete the directory number on the feature and delete the feature from teh database. If you chose no then no programming changes has been done and your directory number box is highlighted again for you to chose a different directory number to program for this station.
I have already created a category called "How to". From AlphaWiki main page, select "All categories". Here you find the "How to" category. To include an article in this category, simply write [[Category: How to]] wherever in the text (I prefer at the very bottom as done in this article).
Create new articles
Simply type in the name of the article you want to create in the search field in AlphaWiki. For example "How to program DAK-keys on master stations". Press "Go". Now you get a message that this page doesn't exist, and a link to create the article. Note that the search string will become the title of the article. Try to choose the title carefully. I suggest that all articles in the "How to" category actually starts with "How to....".
You can start by editing this article. (And delete all I have written here:-). When it comes to adding pictures etc., we can look into that later.
It is very useful to study other articles (select "Edit" to see the code). You can also find a lot of help here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents#For_editors
Let me know if you need any help.
